The computer was installed with a clean Kubuntu from the start. The problem is that Qt requires some packages to build and finding those packages is (at least for me) a tedious iterative process (make &#8211; look what failed &#8211; apt-get install it &#8211; repeat). So, without further ado, here is a list of packages that you need to get 4.3.4 X11 to build properly:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>build-essential<\/li>\n<li>libx11-dev<\/li>\n<li>libxext-dev<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, make sure to apt-get install those before running <tt>.\/configure &amp;&amp; make &amp;&amp; make install &amp;&amp; echo -e \"\\a\"<\/tt> . At least it keeps you from interrupting your I&#8217;m-compiling-thus-working-coffee-break. :-)<\/p>\n<p>Sidenote: I guess Qt 4.4 requires some gstreamer goodies as well, I&#8217;ll tell you when I get there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>>I have to admit it &#8211; I always build my own Qt.
